Report: Liverpool Target Youri Tielemans Turns Down Latest Contract Offer At Leicester City

According to reports, Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans who has been linked with a move to Liverpool has turned down a new contract at the club.

Contract until 2023 and apparently refusing to sign a new one. Sounds like we'll have stiff competition for him though.

Yeah, by the end of the season 18 months left means not such a bad position.

Certainly won't be the only club interested I'd imagine. Everytime I've seen him he seems dynamic, always a goal threat, tidy on the ball, big engine, lots of desire, still young. Exactly the type of player that we should throw the kitchen sink at if we are serious.

Sell Winks for whatever we can get, 30 odd I hope, and then add 30 of our own.

Mental we never signed a forward in the summer

Which summer?

By the end of the season I think it'll be 12 months left.

There'll certainly be competition for his signing. But at the moment I believe that if Conte can get us good results we'll be a good pull for many players.

If we are going to get a defensive centre mid I l the look of Edson Alvarez of Ajax.

Top four and our first European trophy for awhile and we'll be right ?

Yeah Dybala’s form has been awful, but so is Chiesa’s tbf. One goal in the league and no assist. My biggest question with Dybala is his injury record but he is a quality player when used correctly in the right system. I will be curious to see what happens to him because there certainly seems to be some issues with his contract, wouldn’t be surprised if Juve can’t afford what he wants. To be honest I don’t really rate McKennie so I hope that doesn’t happen, think he’s far too slow for the PL and just doesn’t excel at anything.

The sale of Lukaku was never going to be enough to sort out their financial mess. Both Inter and Juve need money, Inter more so, but as you say, I really wouldn’t be surprised if we are looking in that market as there will be a lot of bargains.

Except for last season Dybala has played between 42 and 48 games in all competitions each season he’s been at Juve. Is his injury record that bad?

Not even worth thinking about for a single second!

FYI

That doesn't seem that bad to be honest; not that many games missed in the grand scheme of things.

Of course, comparisions to other players are needed.

I guess another consideration is to which extent there is room for an outright #10 regista type in Conte’s preferred formation? Maybe in the front three of a 3-4-3, but perhaps not in a 3-5-2? Eriksen (albeit no longer at his peak) struggled to break into Conte’s 3-5-2 at Inter.

Benoit Badiashile has been linked via Calciomercato. No idea how reputable they are. Not seen much of him heard about him being highly rated. Anyone who is a bit more educated in ligue 1 able to say anything more about him

Terrible source but he looks perfect for the left of the back three

Anyone know any further about maxence Lacroix? It was a very exciting prospect in the summer window

Recently signed a new deal, but has got a £34m release clause in his new contract (which will become active next summer). No idea what Conte and Paritici would think of him, but it's probably one to keep an eye on.

 

[Joely]

Another player I thought we may look at as a left sided CB is Dan Axel Zagadou at Dortmund. Contract apparently running out in the summer however he looks to have had some serious injury issues. Still young and suppose if it was on a free may make it more tempting but injury history a concern.

 

[T-Bone]

I think Belotti of Torino as a back up striker would be a great move.

 

[Steffen]

I dont see him happening, under Conte he played the free role of the CB's and was allowed to press further forward, the same role that Romero played in Italy

I suspect we go back in for Kounde with the Sanchez swap deal

I hope so. Doesn't seem like Chelsea is interested anymore, either:

Chelsea failed to strike a deal with Sevilla in the summer transfer window for French defender Jules Kounde
